Nicole Mitsuuchi
She/Her
Licensed Therapist, MSW, LCSW
About
My approach to OCD therapy is gentle, nurturing, guiding, and redirecting. This is a safe space where you'll be challenged to face your fears. We'll collaborate to determine your treatment plan, but the overall goal is to be able to tolerate uncertainty. Try to remember that ERP (Exposure and Response Prevention) is essentially short-term distress that results in lifelong change. In addition to OCD, I also specialize in treating anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, parent-child interaction therapy, attachment disorders, and trauma.

I was one of those people who couldn’t understand how ERP could possibly work. The idea of running towards your fears and welcoming the uncomfortableness terrified me. But I became tired of not living my life. I am grateful to the universe for putting Nicole onto my path. She has been incredibly supportive during this journey. A journey that is filled with anxiety, but Nicole reminds me of my strength and encourages me to keep pushing. She loves celebrating your wins with you! In just a few sessions, I could see and feel the change and Nicole is a big part of that. She’s gentle, actively listening to me, informative, and genuinely cares for her patients. If you’re unsure if it’s time to face your OCD, just do it. The first step is difficult but Nicole guided me through it and I couldn’t be happier that I’m taking back my life.
